Decorative glass mirrors 3 kinds of installation method

General installation and fixing of decorative glass mirrors have three, namely nailed method, paste and compression method, the following small series to introduce

1. method of nailed

This method is the decorative glass mirrors fixed to the wall with screws (or cylindrical, top) on the base. The steps are as follows:

(1) wall wall, neat, no bulging, uneven phenomenon, if the wall roughness can be directly used for installation; otherwise, the available mortar (such as adding moisture-proof powder is better) and the spatulation leveled again.

(2) the perforated holes on each piece of decorative glass mirrors need to drill four mounting holes, holes should be evenly distributed, not too close to the edge of the mirror to prevent cracking. Now stereotypical decorative glass mirrors are generally sold in the market have hit a hole, not stereotypes in professional processing of glass can punch.

Put glass mirror installation location in wall Shang play good line, then again put decorative mirror placed in wall of corresponding location, through glass mirror Shang of holes standard out, its in wall Shang of corresponding hole bit, moved open mirror, with drill or electric hammer in wall Shang standard out of location playing hole, Aperture should according to selection of screws size to determine, General to is less than screws end head diameter 3 mm suitable.

(3) paving cushioning materials in order to prevent uneven grass-roots and decorative glass breakage, should mirror the wall between a layer of cushioning material. Lining material is best for a thin elastomer of felt or foam plates, 2~3-mm-thick, white plastic glued to the wall, cushioning materials to less than glass 10~15 mm is appropriate, in order to mirror after installation, use caulk around closed.

(4) prior to installing the glass installed, paste a layer of brown paper on the back glass protector. The specific method is, first in the brush a layer of white glue on the back of the mirror, then put a piece of brown paper pasted on the back of mirror, and scraped smooth plastic plate. Good hole in the wall embedded in plastics expansion bolts, the mirror on the holes in place using screws, diagonally tighten, glass smooth no shaking is appropriate.

(5) around the closed glass after the fix is installed, in order to prevent moisture intrusion into the mirror behind, affect the life of the mirror and quality caulk should be used to mirror gaps between walls and dense workmanship.

2. Paste method

High bond strength of adhesives, glass paste directly on the walls of the grass-roots. This is a way of less than 1 square wall border installations. If the mirrors are large in size, mirror or ceiling installation, using solid phase bonding of paste and nail the best way to ensure a mirror damaged, whereabouts will not hurt.

The specific practices of the pasting is as follows: clear clean mirror back, removing the dust and sand. Paste a layer of Kraft as a protective layer on the back of the mirror. Then kraft paper on the back of the mirror and brushing adhesive on the wall, when not sticking a plastic, glass and mirror according to the play the position well in advance line paste directly on the wall. Press the mirror with your hands so that it closely and note the corner and wall adhesion paste. When the mirror after you glued, caulked around closed.

Paste should be noted in front of a mirror, should ensure that the wall surface is flat, you should cement mortar scratch formation. In addition, you cannot directly contact adhesive on the back of the mirror, mirror coating to prevent corrosion damage.

Moreover, in addition to adhesive adhesives can be used, but can also use double-sided tape to paste in the mirror. This double-sided tape in the sponge plate made of coated high strength adhesive on both sides, about two or three millimeters thick, have a certain flexibility. When used, cut into 5~10 cm wide, tore off the side of the protective paper and pasted on the wall of the primary, hand pressed tightly to make mirrors and tape glued. Then caulk closed mirror workmanship around.

3. the compression method

Compression method is the use of stainless steel, aluminum or wood glass borders, nailed by the grass-roots level with the wall border is fixed, embedded in the glass border. This method is suitable for large area glass fixing.

Practice of entrapment as follows: first by a border line bead size, holes, drill. According to the line fixed the lower border of the play layers, the spacing of nails to 10~15 cm is appropriate, in order to increase support at the bottom. Then blanket with white plastic paste on the grass-roots level. Embedded in the lower border of the layering in the mirror again, aligning and wall stickers, install upper layering and layering of the border on both sides of the border. It should be noted that was fixed when applied moulding, best fixed with 20~25mm nail gun nails, common round nails should be avoided to prevent nail Batten breaks the mirror.

In addition also can use non-PIN technology embedded, is done by using the wood-lined cards live glass, then use contact adhesive to stainless steel or aluminum trim Strip sticking on the wooden Strip, and then layering at the corner between the glass and plastic glass.
